About
Hi
I am a qualified English teacher living in Spain. I have worked both online and in the classroom. I can help with Conversational English, General English, Business English and Grammar.
I have been teaching since 2011. I love teaching and am a strong believer that making the lessons fun and relevant to the student is one of the best ways for the student to learn. During my 5 years of teaching, I have worked online and also on intensive courses here in Spain teaching both children and adults.
I have been living in Spain for over ten years now, Over the years, i have traveled to and lived in a number of countries. I have worked in sales and marketing in a number of industries including the travel industry.
Away from teaching, I love spending time with my family and my animals. I enjoy watching sport, reading and writing

I like to get the student talking as much as possible. I concentrate mainly on conversational practice but also use other materials when needed.
I like to make sure classes are relaxed and friendly; my main aims are to improve your confidence in English and make the lessons enjoyable for you.
